We’re digging into some super interesting takeaways from Good to Great and How the Mighty Fall by Jim Collins.
These books break down why some companies crush it, while others crash and burn.
Let me give you the quick version:
Going from Good to Great
- Some companies didn’t just do well—they dominated, outpacing the market by 6-10x!
- So what’s their secret? It boils down to strong leadership, focusing on the company first, and making sure you’ve got the right people on board.
Why Some Companies Fail
- Even the top dogs can fall.
- And no, it’s not just bad luck. It’s about making poor decisions, chasing growth too fast, or straight-up ignoring red flags.
Why This Matters for Your Dealership
- This isn’t just corporate stuff. Dealerships go through the same highs and lows.
- Whether you’re celebrating a killer month or pushing for growth without a solid plan, these lessons hit home.
